The face and voice of an old friend whom I was just now called from my
work to see.
The plan and details of my writing.
The face and gestures of my old psychology professor and the assembled
class engaged in a tangling metaphysic discussion.
A cramped position.
Some loose hair about my face distracting me.
An engagement at 7.30.
A sharp resolve to stop wool-gathering and finish this chapter.
And yet, until I stopped to examine my consciousness, I was keenly aware
_only_ of the thoughts on psychology I was trying to put on paper.
But how shall we classify these various contents?
Some are _emotion_, _i. e._, feelings; others are _intellect_, _i. e._,
thoughts; still others represent _determination_, _i. e._, volition or
will.
There is nothing in this varied consciousness that will not be included
in one or another of these headings. Let us group the contents for
ourselves.
The nurses for whom I am writing:
A result of memory and of imagination (both intellect). A sense of
kinship and interest in them (emotion).
